This place was exactly as advertised. Walking to the beach or to State St. is a little far but it's a really short drive. Very pleased with the location. Joy and Sam maintain their home and the room where we stayed, in top notch condition. Very clean. Large shower and bathroom. Double sinks over the vanity area. Very private. No noise whatsoever.Every morning we were provided a breakfast of fresh berries, warm muffins, fantastic yogurt, juice etc.. We had a coffee maker in our room that made delicious coffee. There's ample parking in the driveway and no worries about the neighborhood. Best part of our stay was the hospitality we received from the owners. Joy and Sam are the real deal. They were nearby if we needed anything and they were no where to be found when we wanted privacy. Absolutely loved their company. We would not hesitate to return for another stay here.

My two 20-something daughters and I stayed here this past week for three nights and found that all the glowing reviews were absolutely true. You could not book a better room with a better experience! The owners, Joy and Sam, were like old friends, pampering us with their incredible hospitality and making sure that we had everything we needed--whether it had to do with our room or with our activities. The room is not just a room, but a suite that accommodated 3 female adults without crowding issues or fighting over dressing space. The sumptuous and filling continental breakfast brought to the room each morning at a time we specified was a much appreciated included extra. Joy and Sam not only provided all kinds of tourist information (brochures, menus, tide tables, etc.) above and beyond what a hotel would provide but also included their suggestions (when solicited) based on their personal experiences--including the best ways of getting around. If you want to visit Santa Barbara and feel like a good friend is pampering you, plan to stay at Paradise Found. We will definitely recommend it to others and will be returning ourselves.

We spend our last week of our vacation as a guests of Joy and Sam. Never meet such a hospitality before. With very helpful advises and suggestions what to see/visit and how, they did everything to make our stay comfortable. I do suggest from the bottom of my heart.

What a wonderful stay!!! Joy and Sam are natural "inn keepers" helpful, kind and warm. The room is beautiful better than the pictures, the grounds peaceful and relaxing. The breakfast (served at your door, at what ever time you request) is delicious and healthy. I wish we could have stayed longer. And the art in their home and the room inspiring and beautiful. You can not go wrong staying here and the price is so fair for what they provide. We highly recommend Paradise and Breakfast Too!!!!! We will be back!

Our stay and Joy and Sam's house was so comfortable and easy. The suite is so cute! Clean, cozy, comfortable and has everything you need - mini fridge, filtered water heater, towel warmer - you name it. Breakfast in the morning was splendid! Warm pastries, delicious fruit, yogurt, and freshly squeezed orange juice all prepared at whatever time you need. Joy and Sam are such pleasant people. They clearly enjoy having guests and strike the right balance between getting to know you and allowing you to go on your way. I would definitely stay here again!
